Almost the End of the Year

Wow. 2013 is almost over with and I wonder if I'm happy or sad about that. Perhaps a little bit of both. I don't think I will make New Year resolutions this year since I just break them anyway but I do have a plan for some things. More on that in a day or two.

One thing that I had plans for while on break was to work on the teapot BOM from Angie's Bits n Pieces. This was a couple of years ago that it was offered. I had most of the blocks done but suddenly they all disappeared. This weekend I managed to redo all the blocks. At least I got them fused on and I will now be able to take one or two with me back to work and stitch them.

Of course they will look better after I have stitched them. I am thinking that I will use the buttonhole stitch but perhaps all in the same color. I'm thinking a dark brown. Getting all of those fused on today made me feel like I accomplished something.

The other thing that took up a lot of time today was watching the Phoebe Allen cam. :) Phoebe is a hummingbird and her TWO eggs hatched within 15 minutes of each other today. You want to see one of them come out and join the world? They have it on YouTube also.
